Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United StatesThe mattress was not comfortable. There was a layer on it that squeaked under every movement we made. The kitchen was great, but having a few basics like oil, full and working salt and pepper grinders would have been great. Not their fault but the power kept going out in town. No generator in sight meant the rooms got very hot without the fan or AC I kind of thought there’d be more inclusions with the stay like bikes and boards to borrow. I wish I’d booked last minute rather than ahead of time because the price came way down
Location, parking, pool, kitchen were all great. Property has security and wonderful cleaning staff. Wonderful to get a tasty coffee in the mornings from the juice bar.

CanadaIt would have been nice to have a light breakfast included as they have the facilities and space to do this. We would have enjoyed that little extra.
There was no breakfast included with our accomodation but they had a community kitchen which you could tend to any cooking needs. There was a coffee smoothie bar with free morning coffee but no available breakfast. Alejandro the manger was very efficient and helpful with all our needs. He spoke good English and arranged transportation and dining reservations for us. I would highly recommend this Hotel!

United StatesThe room is too small for two people. I shared it with a friend and there was not much space to spread out our suit cases. The room is very quiet and charming, with remote AC and the bathroom was very good with a blow dryer included and a good size shower and hot water.
The property has a nice jungle design with a pool, seating area, a pod coffee maker and cold water dispenser to fill your water bottle. It’s Very relaxing in the morning. The ladies did my laundry for me which was a huge plus!

AustraliaThe wifi is unreliable which is unfortunate & shouldn’t be an issue in this day and age.
Lovely surroundings, clean room, comfortable bed, nice hot shower, great aircon, small fridge in room. Great to have access to filtered hot & cold water for free. Great location, close to all you need - beach, restaurants and groceries. Lovely pool area, although it needs to be cleaned more frequently due to the number of insects. Alejandro was super helpful and arranged a tuk tuk for me from the airport.

United KingdomNothing. One observation is that some of the pool tiles are missing making it feel a bit tired.
Lovely setting with a really good communal area and pool including a kitchen (although we didn’t need to use it) The gardens are immaculate and it’s quiet at night (apart from the occasional morning Howler monkey). It’s at the best end of town for restaurants and the free morning coffee was very good. The staff are all lovely and helpful.

Costa RicaI think the rooms need "plaquitas" to repel some of the mosquitoes. Additionally, ensuring the staff wash their dishes with soap and water after using them is important. I would also revisit the visitors policy, it was low season and the place was mainly empty, however the staff didn't let my friends in after 7pm which was a little wild to me. Specially because everything closed at like 9pm and we just wanted to talk a little more before going to bed.
The place is beautiful and at the center of Nosara, super close to the beach. They offer everything and the staff is kind.

United StatesIt’s slightly pricey (however nosara is expensive in general). There were some issues with ants in my bathroom, however the cleaning staff came daily and this issue was fixed.
The staff are incredibly friendly. I loved the pool area and the yoga studio. I loved the vibe of the entire property and it was in a fantastic location. I was able to walk pretty much everywhere I wanted to go. The beds were comfortable and the shower had decent water pressure. If I visit nosara again, I’ll 100% book at living hotel.

United StatesThe mattress was absolutely terrible. We had to ask the cleaning staff to flip it and turn it to see if it would improve. By the end of the week out backs were pretty wrecked.
The grounds and location were excellent! The pool and other facilities were really beautifully kept and so comfortable. I absolutely LOVED all the trees and plants in the hotel, it felt like a personal jungle in the middle of nosara.
